This study found that a cosmetic foam reduced the telogen rate in men with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a potential benefit against male pattern hair loss.

This review highlights various alternative and complementary treatments for androgenic alopecia, noting that while only two FDA-approved options exist, increased awareness among dermatologists of supportive evidence for other therapies may better inform patient education.

This study discusses the potential of phytochemicals, such as isoflavones and polyphenols, to manage PCOS symptoms by improving insulin resistance, regulating hormones, and reducing cyst size, highlighting their promise as alternative treatments given the limitations of current pharmacological options.

This chapter reviews the challenges and future prospects of using nanotechnology and phytochemistry in developing safe, effective, and precision-based therapies for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, without reporting new clinical findings.

This study investigated the phytochemical composition and antibacterial and antioxidant activities of Zaleya pentandra extracts, finding high total polyphenol and flavonoid content and significant antibacterial effects, particularly in acetone extract, which may be suitable for developing antibacterial agents.

This review describes evidence suggesting regular apple consumption may improve cardiovascular health and reduce risks for chronic diseases through antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other beneficial effects, particularly when consumed as whole fruits rather than processed forms.

This study found that the extracts of Serenoa repens, when evaluated through chemical, biological, and in silico methods, demonstrated anti-inflammatory, pro-apoptotic, and anti-androgenic activities against prostate cancer cell lines, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits and directing future pharmaceutical development.

This article reviews the extensive pharmacological applications of various parts of the neem plant, such as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects, and reports no adverse effects except for allergic reactions, concluding neem is broadly beneficial with numerous medicinal and cosmetic uses.

Some nutrients and antioxidants may improve skin and hair health, but more research is needed to confirm these benefits.

This study found that PGA-4HGF nanoparticles enhanced hair growth in mice more effectively than 4HGF alone by increasing anagen phase duration and dermal papilla cell proliferation.

This study introduces "Homeodynamic Rejuvenation" as a method to restore the skin's resilience by enhancing its ability to detect and recover from stress, focusing on five core biological processes critical for maintaining skin function and health amidst environmental and metabolic challenges.

This study found that tea polyphenol–zinc significantly improved intestinal barrier function and reduced liver inflammation and oxidative stress in mice with diquat-induced damage.

This study developed a biocompatible hair-dyeing technology using a dark polyphenol complex, which demonstrated effective hair coating, improved mechanical strength, and strong antioxidant properties while maintaining high cell viability.

In this study, polydopamine emerged as a safe and effective alternative to traditional hair dyes like PPD for dyeing gray hair permanently, showing resistance to detergents and causing less toxicity and hair loss in mice.

This review discusses metal-organic frameworks for treating diabetic infected wounds and related applications, reporting no new clinical results but highlighting challenges like biosafety and production for future research.

This study found that a hair-coating polyphenol complex significantly enhanced the mechanical strength, UV protection, and antistatic properties of damaged hair, suggesting potential benefits for hair treatment.

This review explores the potential health benefits of food bioactive compounds, specifically polyphenols, as preventive agents against non-communicable diseases like cancer and cardiovascular disorders, while also addressing challenges like bioavailability and industrial applications.

This study found that a multifunctional hydrogel dressing enriched with Cu-MOF and tannic acid significantly improved full-thickness wound healing in rats, reducing the wound area to only 1.6% and promoting re-epithelialization, neovascularization, and hair follicle formation.

In this study, researchers developed a polyphenol–amino acid nanozyme capable of controlled hydrogen peroxide delivery, which effectively activated hair follicles via oxidative stress in a mouse model, suggesting a potential non-pharmacological treatment for alopecia.

This study observed that tannic acid significantly reduced hair shedding by 56.2% over seven days in human participants when used as a coating for controlled release of active compounds to hair follicles.

This source reviews the potential of polyphenols as therapeutic and preventive treatments for common skin disorders such as acne, fungal infections, dermatitis, alopecia, and skin cancer, emphasizing their anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects and ability to penetrate the skin barrier.

In this study, a polyphenol and biotin supplement improved skin roughness and significantly reduced hair shedding, but did not demonstrate clear superiority over placebo in overall skin outcomes.

In this study, reducing agents like ammonium thioglycolate, L-cysteine, and sodium sulfite in shampoo effectively decreased hair flyaway and frizz without causing damage, as no critical hair damage was observed in structural and tensile strength assessments.

In this review, the authors summarized the potential therapeutic effects of metal ions in treating cardiovascular diseases, highlighting their roles in protecting cells, inducing angiogenesis, and adjusting ion channel functions, as well as discussing delivery strategies involving biomaterials.

In this review, researchers highlighted that natural polyphenolics like flavonoids and resveratrol may help enhance testosterone production in aging males by boosting the expression of the Star gene in Leydig cells, potentially preventing age-related degenerative conditions linked to testosterone insufficiency.

This study developed a biodegradable nonwoven textile using a starch-based biopolymer and fruit extracts, resulting in materials that are stronger, more hydrophilic, and capable of releasing beneficial compounds over 72 hours, positioning them for potential use in medical, healthcare, and cosmetic applications.

This meta-analysis of animal studies found that alkaloids have potential anti-influenza and anti-inflammatory effects, correlating with improved viral titers and survival rates, though they did not effectively reduce TNF-α and IL-6 levels. Extensive further studies are needed to confirm these findings before considering clinical application.

This review discusses the functions of SARS-CoV-2 non-structural proteins in facilitating immune evasion and highlights possible therapeutic strategies, reporting no new clinical results.
